Papa Murphy's Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:FRSH), the world's leading
take 'n' bake pizza franchise, is pleased to announce its
sponsorship of the 38th annual Memphis in May World Championship
Barbecue Cooking Contest from May 14-16, 2015 at Tom Lee Park in
Memphis, Tennessee. The company will also exclusively offer Memphis
in May event attendees the opportunity to enjoy complimentary
samples of its new BBQ pizzas in celebration of National Pizza
Party Day, which takes place on Friday, May 15.
"We are honored to be the first take 'n' bake pizza company and
only pizza chain in attendance at this year's World Championship
Barbecue Cooking Contest," said Ken Calwell, president and chief
executive officer of Papa Murphy's. "Memphis in May brings
thousands of people together each year for their love of barbecue
and great tasting food, and we are thrilled to be a special part of
this international festival. The world's best barbecue fans and
connoisseurs are invited to celebrate National Pizza Party Day with
us and be the very first to try our new barbecue-inspired pizzas
perfect for every summer grilling event."
The new BBQ pizzas are comprised of three fresh, pizza
creations, including the Chicken, Angus Steak and Pork Sausage on a
crispy-thin crust. The limited-time offering pizzas start with a
thin crust, scratch-made dough, feature sweet and smoky KC
Masterpiece BBQ sauce and are topped with generous portions of 100
percent whole-milk mozzarella cheese grated in-store daily with
customers' choice of chicken, steak or pork sausage.
Like all Papa Murphy's options, the BBQ pizzas are completely
customizable and customers can add additional toppings from the
Create Your Own line in store. They are best enjoyed on the grill
preheated at 375-400 degrees for approximately 20-30 minutes or in
a 425 degree oven for 12-18 minutes. For complete pizza grilling
